Rolfing Iowa

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, QualityI purchased the ten session package, and now I am going back monthly for maintenance . Frank’s knowledge of kinesiology and anatomy enable him to identify areas that need attention. He is constantly checking during the session asking how does that feel to make sure the pressure used is appropriate to the area on which he is working. He begins and ends each session having me walk to check alignment before and after adjustment. Frank will work beyond our time session to complete the work needed to his satisfaction. I am taller now after he opened the muscles in my back to allow me to stand straighter. He explained what he was doing for me and what changes I needed to make to maintain the adjustment gained from the 10 sessions. Frank has a sharp eye for detail which impressed me in the things he noticed in my stance.I purchased the ten session package, and now I am going back monthly for maintenance .

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, QualityRolfing with Frank Epstein has changed my life. For thirty years I carried 15-18 lbs. of gear around my waist, wore a bullet proof vest and walked in combat boots. If that isn’t enough to mess with my body, I am also an avid horseperson and have been since the age of 5. Between work and pleasure I have had my share of sprains, strains and pulls. Luckily no broken bones. I have been receiving chiropractic work for painful lower back and hips for about 10 years and it has helped immensely. But always thought there had to be more out there that could help me feel even better.I am one of those people that take good care of my horses. They also receive chiropractic and about six months ago I discovered Nancy Rose an “Equine Rebalancer”. Nancy worked wonders on a horse for me that had sustained a broken hip as a baby. She also filled me on Frank Epstein’s Rolfing. I gave it some thought and chose to take as good care of me as I do my horses and made an appointment to meet with Frank.After just one session I was (no kidding) two inches taller. The old lady hump in my back started to diminish and I had just a bit of a waistline. I was hooked! Each successive appointment showed more improvement. Frank assisted me in walking properly and to hold my body accountable to the new things it was learning.I have recommended Frank Epstein to all my friends and clients, because we all deserve to feel better, have more energy and stay healthy!!!Rolfing with Frank Epstein has changed my life.

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, QualityI have been dealing with a chronic back injury since i was 16. Since the pandemic the pain went from intense but sporadic to intense and constant. I’ve been working with Frank some months now and he has helped me heal and realign my body and improved my daily pain immensely. I cannot recommend Frank enough to anyone with pain, or who simply need to get their body back to optimal posture and health. He’s also a cool human.I have been dealing with a chronic back injury since i was 16. Since the pandemic the pain went from intense but sporadic to intense and constant.

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, QualityFrank is dedicated to his clients in alleviating their pain. He is a healer in the true sense of the word.Rolfing is an advanced (IMHO) form of therapy that works with gravity, bringing balance back . I have been continuously Rolfed since the mid 70’s. It has prevented serious back surgery as well a freedom from pain. The Midwest is fortunate to have Frank as an advanced Rolfer with numerous years of experience. I completely trust him with my health.Frank is dedicated to his clients in alleviating their pain. He is a healer in the true sense of the word. …More

Positive: ProfessionalismI have worked with Frank since 2008-09 when I was heavy into Ironman triathlons. I did 3 Ironmans in 12 months, culminating with Ironman Hawaii in Oct 2010. There is no way I make it to my ultimate goal w/o the bodywork Frank provided to keep me healthy to consistently train at a high level. Today I am no longer competing, but I still see Frank regularly to prevent future issues.We only have one body…. treat it well!

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, QualityI’ve had chronic back pain for the past 3 years. I’ve known about Rolfing but haven’t tried it yet and decided to finally book an appointment at Rolfing Iowa. My first session was great! Frank took the time to learn about my pain areas, we did some before and after “tests” to evaluate pain treatment, and we took pictures of my posture before and after the first session and I was so surprised to see a difference, I thought it would take a handful of sessions before change would be visibly noticeable.Anyways, I’ve purchased a 10-session “pack” and am excited to update my review after my 10th session. The day after my first session feels really good, definitely less pain already. 5/5 stars for Frank! Give him a call if you’re experiencing pain, he’s been doing this for a long time and really knows his stuff.I’ve had chronic back pain for the past 3 years.

Positive: Communication, ProfessionalismKnowledgeable, Professional, CaringI found Rolfing Iowa business cards late fall of 2020, while waiting to pay for a purchase at the counter of Brown’s Shoe Store in Ankeny, IA, and, long story short, that is how I discovered Frank Epstein of Des Moines, Iowa.I am 56 years old, and in very good health. I eat healthy foods, limit alcohol consumption, maintain a healthy weight and exercise regularly. I called Rolfing Iowa because of age related stiffness that had eventually turned into regular pain patterns. In order to have unrestricted FLEXIBILITY and MOBILITY again, I determined the connective tissue within my body needed to be re-set with proper alignment.I am very pleased with the end results of Rolfing sessions with Frank. Specifically, I no longer experience plantar facia in my feet, and my feet no longer point noticeably outward when I walk. To my pleasant surprise, I observed with my daily warm-up stretches, that the properly aligned change in my feet and legs gave me better BALANCE – something I hadn’t anticipated. Besides my feet and legs, Frank also gave me relief from the deep neck and shoulder pain – which I had struggled with for a lifetime – from pitching softball in high school in combination with life stress.All combined, Rolfing has made huge difference in my daily life. From the mundane of having balance and flexibility while standing on a ladder and reaching with a paintbrush, the routine of getting out of bed and immediately walking without pain in my feet, the thrill of bicycling with mobility that doesn’t provoke soreness, or the joy of picking up the grandchildren with strength and confidence, my Rolfing session experiences were priceless. I am thankful that fate led me to the Rolfing Iowa business card – in a business that I’ve trusted for a lifetime. Mostly, I am grateful for the small business owner of Rolfing Iowa, Frank Epstein. With his attention to detail, knowledge and skill, Frank helped me achieve what I couldn’t have done myself for my health and well-being.p.s. I also no longer wear those very expensive “good” foot inserts for feet and knee pain!Knowledgeable, Professional, CaringI found Rolfing Iowa business cards late fall of 2020, while waiting to pay for …More
